And some people have the nerve to put LeBron over MJ

 

[BIG FISH]

MVPs >>>> all defensive teams

Scola was a beast that series, and it was Aaron Brooks get it right

 

[BIG FISH]

There’s also no argument for Kobe over LeBron. Y’all gotta give that up

 

[gaiiige]

eliminating a 70 win team >>>

 

[MVP]

This needs updating. And per hoopshype if you include the 60% winning percentage threshold [50+ wins] (for seasons less than 82 games) it's still pretty much the same.

Kobe: 25 in 15 playoffs
MJ: 20 in 13 playoffs
Duncan: 20 in 18 playoffs
Shaq: 18 in 17 playoffs
Magic: 14 in 13 playoffs
Bron: 11 in 11 playoffs

Idk DAL HOU had some really strong teams in the 80s. POR DEN SEA were pretty tough too. Lakers had too much talent

You thinking early 90's for Houston and Seattle.

Denver was a gimmick.

The year the Rockets upset the Lakers, they didn't even win 50 games.


Mutiple years there were as few as two teams that won 50 games. One year only the Lakers won 50.

Just cause you keep saying it doesn't make it true. If there's any argument for Duncan over Bron, there has to be one for Kobe over Bron cause there's an argument for Kobe over Duncan that's pretty easy to make.

If you make the finals with less than 50 wins doesn’t that indicate parity in your conference?

 

[BIG FISH]

the trade off is those guys played weaker teams in the Finals

Nah Bron is clearly a better player than Kobe.
Don’t know how anyone would argue this.
“Bbbbut ringzzz”

We ain't talking talent, we talking resumes and accomplishments to this point. Which is why I brought up the Aaron Rodgers comparison. He's more talented than Brady but nobody would say he's had a better career. Bron's talent may be right there with MJ but his accomplishments fall far short. The trump card is that he was a media darling since day 1 which has allowed him to some degree to get those MVPs but the rest is comparable to at least 7 other players some of whom have much better overall resumes.

Lebron stats >>> Kobe when it’s all said and done

Put kobe with Wade Bosh Ray Kyrie Love in that East and he’d make 7 straight finals too.

Nah kobe personality and play wouldnt mesh well.

These hypotheticals are dumb but put LeBron with prime Shaq and.....

You mean like ‘08 olympics?

Those teams werent constructed in 08. Plus he tore his achilles and was never the same physically he was a machine before that.

Point is , if ppl wanna say Lebron the GOAT becuz he made 7 straight finals....well, a **** ton of great players could’ve done that in those exact circumstances (bunch of HOF teammates in a weak conference)
